September 2018: American Academy of Family Physicians’ The Neighborhood Navigator

NASHP’s Healthy Child Development State Resource Center features a resource highlighting the important role that screening, referral, and care coordination play in healthy child development each month. In September, NASHP features The Neighborhood Navigator, a tool from the American Academy of Family Physicians and its EveryONE Project. The navigator helps family physicians address social determinants of health by linking them to thousands of social services in their area that can provide help with child care, housing, transportation, employment, and legal services. Check out other newly developed resources from NASHP at Healthy Child Development State Resource Center, supported by the David and Lucile Packard Foundation.
